hmm, when she appears she pushes the curtain above the hand for a split second, so the hand isn't visible for the whole time. That, and when he pulls the front curtain over her, the hand isn't visible the whole time. So it might not be her inside the whole time, but that doesn't really give me enough clues how they did it.

First guess was twins, but I guess it's something else...

There is a thin man or woman in the pole that hold box.

At 0:21 you can see she is already down from the box.
Very fast move indeed.

Fake hand, trap door on the cage, well-rehearsed entries & exits - as soon as he puts the curtain up, the cage shakes - it's her getting out. As soon as she appears behind the curtain, the cage shakes again - him getting in.

I can still see his hard breathing after climbing into the box. Other than that its a pretty much flawless performance.

This is such an old trick. Just seen a rerun of some show where she, the presenter had to learn the same trick in an afternoon to take on the role of the girl in the cage at a Hans Klok show in Vegas.

(looked it up "try before you die" epi 3 2007)

Like #(removed comment) said look at 0:27 the hand switch from left to right. But that doesnt help for the trick ^^

All I have to say is 0:17 that sound in the music is the tip. she gets out of the cage because it is cover by the curtain at this time. The one hand in the hole is quickly(in a split second when she closes the hand to hold the curtain) replace by her second hand to hold the curtain, this is made from the inside(you need to be very close to notice this changes in movements and shape). she moves the "second part" of the curtain above the first at 0:24 thats when he puts the hand inside the box and switchs the hand that was previosuly holding the curtain(it could also be a fake hand but this is not very probable, as this can be achieved without the use of that). Now the hard part is the guy because he doesnt have much time to go up to the cage again and switching hands is more dificult here because he realy needs to be in time so no one notices. As many said before, the time when she appears and he goes behind the curtain is sloopy and you can see hands changing in the side she's going.

this is how i think they done it.
They use a fake hand to hold the curtain.
And when the guy covers the cage the Girl gets out and they quickly swap places and the guy runs behind the cage and squeezes in.

the very strange thing is that between 00:27 (when he/she 's still covered) and 00:28 hand turns from right to left..!

You are all wrong.

They clone themselves with a Tesla invention and then kill each other after the show. Haven't you seen "The Prestige"?

There is a reason why the hole for the hand is located so low so that she can climb down while holding onto the curtain through the hole as soon as it is in her hand. The position is low enough for her to put her hand up through the hole. Then they switch hands. Same with the guy. He use his right hand to reach through the hole to hold on to the curtain rail and then climb up into the box. There must be some kind of steps on the beam to climb up or down quickly.

yeah, if you look carefully, as the woman starts taking the cloth down, at first a left hand is showing...as soon as the cloth comes over the hand, it's the dude's right hand.

my bet is that there's a third person involved. maybe the girl's twin sister.

girl 1: from inside box --> hides in pillar while...
girl 2: initially hidden in pillar --> jumps behind curtain, changes position with guy
guy: hops into box and swaps hand with girl 1 (left hand -> right hand)

Ok so in case you don't know it is v simples.

2 girls same costume similar looks people are not that observant.

Two in box. One in the center pilar which is just very thin metal supports with black fabric around it to hide in. One in clear box with open back which can't be seen. big black cloth goes up. women in pillar gets out vquickly behind black cloth. whilst 2nd women in clear bit climbs down into center pillar still holding the other end of black cloth. Then as the women who has come out from behind the black cloth is revealing herself the magician is climbing very quickly into the box. then as the big black screen is being collapsed youll notice it hides the hand holding the other end for a split second at about 0:24 this is when the magician holds the cloth next to where the hidden women is holding who takes her hand away. then as the big cloth is taken away for the reveal he makes an open hand five finger gesture to fool us into thinking he has been holding it the entire time. But the rabbit in the hat trick thats real magic. honest rabbits have the ability to teleport just like chris angel can walk on water and not be a prick at the same time
